Volunteer

Do you enjoy history?

The Lemon Grove Historical Society (LGHS) is actively seeking volunteers. We are an all-volunteer organization, so we know something about volunteerism. Volunteers, such as our museum docents and board members, are very important to LGHS.

Open Positions

We are currently seeking volunteers to fill the following positions:

Vice President, Membership

Become a member of the Board of Directors (one meeting a month); Mail out annual renewals; keep track of the membership database; help us grow our membership.

If you have a skill that you would like to make available to the Society, please let us know. Some of our most valued volunteers are:

Get Involved – Volunteer!

We encourage you to attend an upcoming lecture or visit the museum to get a sense of what we do. Most volunteer opportunities involve just one morning a month, usually a Saturday, but other days can be arranged.
